Elsewhere, Joe Pineapples and Ro-Jaws are falling through space in the penultimate part of ‘Tin Man’, Cyd makes a pilgrimage to question the Truth Trumpet of Celestial Knowledge in The Out, Midnight Indicating Shame leads her rebellion in Proteus Vex, and The Order crash through the chrono-streams!
